im in the process of buying new tires and im not really sure what kind of tires are good so if there any recmendations that would be nice and i was wondering if it would make a difference if i got 235's in the front rather than 225?

 

lots of good tires.... check out www.tirerack.com
Michelin Pilot Sport
Bridgestone S03
BF Goodrich TAKD
Goodyear Eagle F1GSD3... I could go on, but these will get you started

you don't say if you are going with an 18" or 19" wheel, so I'll offer you a suggestion for 18"... run a 245/40-18 in the front on a wheel that is at least 8" wide and run a 275/40-18 in the back on a wweel that is at least 9.5" wide...

Hope that helps,

Depends on the size rims you are running or want. Personally, I've gone with 255/30/20 front and 285/30/20 for the back on 20 x 9 and 20 x 10 respectively. This set up kept me within 0.17" on the front and 0.48" in the back, therefore no problems with TCS. Also, you may want to try the following web site for help

Good luck!

 

If you're on stock wheels(18/8-8,5) you might choose 235-40front/255-40rear Michelins PS2 and save 25lbs over the stock Bridgestones RE040

I guess that your ABS/VDC would be fine but your speedo reads 58,5mph instead of 60mph

If you have tried the above size (235-255/40) thanks for sharing

 

I'm running 245/45-17 fronts and 255/45-17 rears. On my stock 04 base 17 inch rims.

 

How Does Your Car Look With Those Tires, Any Pics? I Got The 235/45-17fronts And 245/45-17 Rears And It Already Looks Good. I Just Want To See How Urs Looks So That I Can Go Wider Next Time. And How Does It Handle.

 

Here are some pics of my car with 245/45-17 fronts and 255/45-17 rears (Tires are Nitto NT555). The handling is way better than having the stock tires. And seems to grip better in my opinion.
